I'm still on my first tank, when should I fuel it with a different gas like 91?

Would have rather heard an answer than read a useless post. Good job?
Anyone else?

Um, he was serious... Never. Why waste the money? V6 is tuned to run on 87. You won't notice any difference. If you MUST, 89 is as high as I'd go. Would eliminate any low grade 87 but 91 is pissing money away.

And I have ran mine down... No amber. Maybe it's on the export cars.

When I had my Traverse in 2009, the car was half filled with 91.. I asked the dealer when I should change he said take a look at fuel information in the data screen in guages drive till it reaches 10 km left, then u can fill it with 95.. Here in Saudi we only have 91 & 95.. That's as far as I know

how low was the gas? i take my take down past the point were it tells me low fuel level (40 miles left) but nothing changes color then. how low is the fuel level before it changes?

and congrats on the new car, and what are you doing in front of the computer? go drive!

Well that's what happened to me.. How low? the moment I started my engine it says low fuel in the dash, I don't really know how low it was.. But the moment the fuel kept pumping in my tank just few seconds the needle starts to move upward then the color immediatly changed.. I'll ask the maintenance guys tomorrow morning, I'll go to pick up my Traverse & i'll ask the guy there about it.. maybe something wrong with the dash in the first place? who knows...

i'll ask & get back to you guys..

I know.. wher are the pictures.. it's coming trust me
